Future Spur: Dylan Harper

[SupremeGuy]

We have too many people playing the same positions tbh.

I still think we draft Harper, but we gotta find a team willing to trade a serviceable big for a Vassell and Keldon package.

If we don't start Fox and Castle next year, we might as well let Sochan play point again.

ESPN analyst Jay Bilas joins the consensus calling Dylan Harper hands-down the best prospect in the draft behind Cooper Flagg. Doesn't expect the Spurs to move off the pick.

Bilas: “If I were going to do something (trade-wise), I wouldn’t do it with that (No. 2 pick). I would take Dylan Harper.”

Though he knows nothing is set in stone until tomorrow night, Dylan Harper told us today in New York he enjoyed his predraft time with the Spurs and is looking forward to joining the team:

"It is a great organization, great people up and down, top to bottom. I love everything about them."

As for fit issue w/Fox and Castle, Harper said he doesn't understand the fuss is in the positionless era.

“The way to be the best is to play with the best and play against the best. You want to play with the best players all around and be one the guys who can fit in, even if you have to sacrifice.”

The more alarming question as to Harper's fit in San Antonio? Harper said he had a breakfast taco on his lone predraft visit to the city -- and thought it was just OK.

“It’s not as good as a bacon, egg and cheese (bagel)," Harper said, "but it’s like right under.”

Dylan Harper said he has seen via Instagram the mural of him that is already up in San Antonio. His thoughts on that premature bit of art?

“Fans is crazy," Harper said. "Nothing is set in stone yet. But if that’s what the fans want, I can’t be the one to say no.”

Time to trade the pick now before it's too late.

It could be worse.

Cooper Flagg (in SA for the Final Four) said breakfast tacos were so bad they caused Duke to fall apart.

(And Maluach doubled down on that.)

(So did Knuepple.)

Thank god we only have to deal with Harper.

It cuts both ways, what if he loved breakfast tacos as much as Beno?

I hope this guy is not the next brandon jennings.

Luckily for us he won't be doing any of this since he'll just be at the 3 point line watching Fox and Castle do it

He'll be Wemby's career point guard. Fox is here for the transition then he'll get traded for more draft capital.

[Mr. Body]

Fox is getting traded for Bam this off-season, with Fox's approval. You heard it here first. Just kidding. Or not.

Not sure what nba agent would be okay with his client waiting at least 3 years to be the lead guard, especially a no 2 pick. No 2 picks walk into the building and the GM gives him the keys to the franchise day 1. Harper is going to walk into the building and the Spurs are going to be like "so this is what we will need from you as a backup point guard"

Harper will play SG to start out and he's already fine with it. He said it in interviews.

Harper saying all the right things like a normal, functioning professional should. Compare with some others.

[T Park]

Said today he wants number 2.


Give. It. To. Him.

[scottspurs]

Someone might have mentioned this already but in his Pre Draft Press Conference today he mentioned that he has talked with Stephon Castle and Jeremy Sochan.

[cutewizard]

We are very lucky fans, we are spoiled......three straight years in the top four of the draft, i mean, that has to be incredible
